  • Power high, power low
    You could take 'em all to school
    You could fly, wilt the stilt had nothing on you
    Lambchops and afro-do, Milwaukee bucks and a barbecue
    #33 just like you

    Sweet lew, how could you?
    Sweet lew, makin' me blue

    A laker trade their bobby-d for a house, a guru by the sea
    A little help from 32, showtime, and worthy
    Those were the days, pre-investment spree

    Sweet lew, is it true?
    Sweet lew, how could you?

    I grew up trying to copy you, bruce lee, and a kung-fu
    Acta jazzman, yogi too
    Little did I know, a loose screw
    But you had your own shoe
    Build him high, build him tall, a taiku with a basketball
    Tear 'em down, one and all
    7'2" is a long way to fall

    Sweet lew, how's the view?
    Sweet lew, how could you? Writer/s: JEFFREY ALLEN AMENT
